34-year-old Fatima Bankole might have thought that taking a piece of fish from a pot was an innocent act, but her husband most certainly didn't see it that way.

The incident is said to have occurred when Alhaji Kamoru Bankole's third wife reported the first, Fatima for taking a large chunk of fish from the pot. The victim explained that she had used the fish to break her fast but her explanation fell on deaf ears.
